Ring exchange is a real custom in the desi culture, except it doesn’t get played out like how it’s in the West. Typically it’s part of the baat pakki, and it’s the MIL that puts the ring on the girl. The guy typically doesn’t get a ring however. These days the baat pakki is separated into a formal engagement,where the ring exchange happens (again, MILs put the rings on, not the actual couple) or at the actual wedding/barat, though to be all “maadrun” and up to date the couple is now allowed to exchange rings.

As for guys wearing it and it being new or old, my mom had bought my dad a wedding band ages and ages ago, except he lost it on a picnic a few short years later. Quiet recently, as in a few years ago she bought him another one. He wears the new one now

Yeah I was wrong

I guess my family is human.. but i’m still hoping i’m not..
